May 31, 201115 yr Have to say, while the fuselage may look like a pregnant Hippo, those wings are the most beautiful on any aircraft I've ever seen... bar the woodpigeon of course... Rónán O Cadhain.

May 31, 201115 yr Have to say, while the fuselage may look like a pregnant Hippo, those wings are the most beautiful on any aircraft I've ever seen... bar the woodpigeon of course... pssst: Got it in one there....But in a side note, I fly Airbus and they aren't actually as bad as some people believe, they're a pleasure to fly and the cockpit is very roomy and airy.

May 31, 201115 yr Second I saw butt-ugly I though Airbus hehehe!No-one, dares say the 747 is ugly around here.I'd have to do a low fly bye on my woodpigeon.
May 31, 201115 yr You guys have to come to Frankfurt (EDDF) You could see around 3-5 A380 each day ;)Personally as a passenger, i prefer Airbus instead of Boeing but only because it seems that the engines are not as loud as at Boeing aircraft. But that is only my impression and as a german guy, i'm used to fly both Boeing (767 Condor 737,738 air berlin/tuifly, 747 LH) and the whole A320 family by Airbus. 4months ago i had the pleasure to get a flight in an A380 by Lufthansa(which is so god darn ugly- yes i'm european but i say this) and that was great. Basically the main difference is that during the flight you almost can't hear any noice. I don't want to compare this to the older 744 because Boeing would loose this contest. So for Long-Hauls, i prefer Airbus.BUT (theres always a but :( )due to the fact i want to become a pilot (hopefully for Lufthansa but we'll see...) i like Boeing jets more, simply because i think it is more flying (have been in a 747 cockpit and an Airbus cockpit. i prefer Boeing style) and they look better :) BTW Do you know that Lufthansa ordered some 777F a few weeks ago?? Flying those would be my dream :D regards, Alexander Marx
May 31, 201115 yr BUT (theres always a but :( )due to the fact i want to become a pilot (hopefully for Lufthansa but we'll see...) i like Boeing jets more, simply because i think it is more flying (have been in a 747 cockpit and an Airbus cockpit. i prefer Boeing style) and they look better :) Trust me, after a long day of flying with 6 sectors in the winter time, you'll really appreciate the Airbus cockpit... and there's just as much flying in the airbus, don't let anyone else tell you otherwise...

May 31, 201115 yr Its nowhere near as ugly as the Dreamlifter. I remember I was sitting in LAX waiting for a connection and the pulled a Qantas one up near a gate I was sitting at. I noticed it because it blocked all light from ther terminal. Doug Orvis PP-ASEL-IA (USA), Based at KHEF Picture courtesy of Kyle Rodgers
May 31, 201115 yr pssst: Actually there is another Airbus that looks more like that! The Mighty Beluga!Also the A380 was originally bigger in her early design days - but was reduced in size - I think she'll look a lot better if they ever make a stretch version...however that won't be happening for some time.

May 31, 201115 yr Nope Emirates in YYZ and AF in YUL.JackColwillDid u SPOT? :( Cool pics, thanks for sharing, Ive only seen the QF A380 at LAX. As for my company getting airbus, I would probally concider new employment :) Shane Walker CYYC - CARS 705 Flight Dispatcher I7-2600K @ 3.4GHZ - 8GB RAM - GTX10606GB - W10 - P3DV4.1 - ACTIVESKY - REX4 + SOFT CLOUDS - EZCA2 - ORBX - FLIGHTBEAM - FSDREAMTEAM -FLYTAMPA - SIMADDONS - AEROSOFT CRJ - PMDG -737/777/747 - TOPCAT + PFPX
May 31, 201115 yr Put it this way...on the 2100 LHR-DME all nighter slog, the airbus flight deck is lovely!! Love the legroom we have! And most importantly, the table! Perfection! Easy work :) Rgds - Sam Harridann

I noticed it because it blocked all light from the terminal.Here are some pics that I took with my iPhone when I flew into RFD for the airfest last year. Personally, I kind of like the DreamLifter. Look at the engine and that mounting pylon! They're HUGE! Sorry to those who saw my post requesting BHM scenery. I meant for that to go into a different thread.
